What does the family often grumble about? Make a list of things the family is not content with from grumble family​
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

The Grumble family found fault with everything and nothing, from the weather to the rains and the sun. And if there is nothing to grumble about, <em>"they'd growl that they'd nothing to grumble about."</em>

Explanation:

Lucy Maud Montgomery's poem "The Grumble Family" presents a neighborhood scene. In the poem, the speaker focuses on a particular family and their 'unsatisfactory' reaction to everything and how they are never contented with anything.

The Grumble family 'grumbles' about nothing and everything. Ranging from weather to complaining about nothing to grumble about, the family never seems to run out of issues to find fault with.

They grumble about <em>"the weather . . . the rain . . . the sun . . ."</em> That's not all, <em>"if everything pleased them . . . They'd growl that they'd nothing to grumble about!" </em>

Choose the sentence below that best represents a speeches theme.
lakkis [162]

To complete your question, the answer choice is as follows

a. Our Country has worked hard to provide equal rights for people.

b. Rosa Parks was a great American civil rights leader.

c. Freedom and equality are worth great sacrifice.

d Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a bus for a white woman.

The sentence that best represents a speech’s theme is "Freedom and equality are worth great sacrifice". This implies the correct answer is C.

<h2>Further Explanation</h2>

A speeches theme should be general and be very concise enough to describe the details of a speech without giving the full details of the content of the speech. The speech theme should be centered mainly on the core values and the topics to be discussed.

A speeches theme must also be the subject that should be developed in a speech and from the options provided only “Freedom and equality are worth great sacrifice” serves this particular purpose.

Also, carefully analyzing other answer choices, you will see they are not issues that should be developed instead they are parts of the speech that will support the argument on the subject.  

However, the introduction of your speech is very important mainly because it points out what your speech is all about. It tells the audience or the listeners the purpose of your speech.

What was mr. tod doing when he heard the sound of car?
Arturiano [62]

Mr.Tod, when he heard the sound of car he was having lunch in the coffee room of an inn.

Mr. Toad is described as the "horror," "traffic-quiller," and "Lord of the Lone Trail." Mr. Toad doesn't seem to have much common sense because he steals a car without giving it any thought. He is so consumed by his love of vehicles that he disregards all traffic laws and acts haughtily toward the authorities.

Mr. Toad lacks sincerity in his activities and is unable to comprehend the magnitude of his crime. He appears to approach situations nonchalantly. After some time of waiting, Mr. Toad lost all self-control. He discreetly snuck out of the room and made his way around to the inn yard.

persuasion  attempts to influence beliefs or attitudes, and requests some type of action from listeners.  and not vice versa as stated in the question
